World Diabetes Day, 14 November 2025

14 November 2025


World Diabetes Day will take place on 14 November 2025, under the theme “Diabetes and well-being”. Diabetes is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attack, stroke and lower limb amputation. A healthy diet, physical activity and avoiding tobacco use can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes. In addition, diabetes can be treated and its consequences avoided or delayed with medication, regular screening and treatment for complications.

In recognition of this important day, we recommend the following related articles, Special Issues and journals spanning multidisciplinary fields, including clinical medicine, biology and material sciences. We believe th.at promoting such research contributes to enhanced public awareness of innovative ideas regarding the prevention, treatment and care of diabetes. This World Diabetes Day, 14 November, let us put well-being at the heart of diabetes care and start the change for a better life with diabetes.
